Overview
- At the resort’s 10th‑anniversary media presentation on Monday, Walt Disney Company executives Josh D’Amaro and Bob Iger appeared on stage and Iger was publicly honored for his role in creating Shanghai Disney Resort.
- Shanghai Disney officially announced the name of its third on‑site hotel as Disney Enchanted Star Hotel, describing a 400‑room, Art Nouveau‑inspired design on Wishing Star Lake and saying it will open this winter.
- The park confirmed major construction progress for its upcoming Spider‑Man land, reporting that track installation for the marquee high‑speed roller coaster has been completed and that the ride will move toward testing and commissioning.
- Multiple news outlets and industry insiders continue to report that a second Shanghai theme park—referred to in fan leaks as “Project Atlas”—is under development, but Disney and its Shanghai Shendi Group partners made no formal second‑park announcement at the anniversary events.
- The updates sit inside Disney’s broader $60 billion experiences investment and the resort’s joint‑venture framework, signaling a push for more hotel rooms and ride capacity to support multi‑day tourism while any new gate will still need formal approval and partner coordination.
